Testimonials

FFX was a weekly ass-kicking that ground me into shape, motivated me to work longer and harder, and showed me that I could push a lot harder than I had previously thought. It taught me a number of exercise skills and techniques that I'd always ignored and gave me a good foundation on which to structure my own workouts after I left the DC area. It was also fun -- admittedly in that sweaty, gasping-for-breath, muscle-burn kind of way. DC isn't known for its proximity to long rock climbs and FFX helped fill the gap left after gym-bouldering and climbing short routes at the Gunks and the NRG; enough so that I made it up the Regular Northwest Face of Half Dome (5.9, C1, 23 pitches) in under 14 hours this past fall.
